Mainly I did it to make room for this badboy, but it also helps my truck launch really good to. Those two batteries are my traction device, HAHAHAHA.

Uhhhh..... COOL!!!!!
How do you change/service the batteries?
Also.... Why 2 batteries....
I've been thinkkin about two batteries myself... but for a "curious" reason...
I'm tired of having to reset all my radio stations after going to the track, and undoing the battery cable for various "mods".... So I want one battery for the stereo equipment, and one for the rest of the truck... IS this possible with a battery isolator? Or am I insane?

Anythings possible, but I've never done that before.
My first guess would be to run the constant power from the radio to the battery. but make sure you put another switch incase you have to do something with the radio. That would work! It would!
I went with two batteries because I run a large stereo system in my truck and it draws about 100 amps or more according to the amps, but mostly I did it because now I can go to the track and let me fan, intercooler pump, and heater run without the worry of my batteries going dead.
the optima batteries are very very good batteries and probably the best you can get, so I shouldn't have to service them at all. And if my truck was to go dead I would just pop the hood and hook up the cables to the post that the main power wire meets up with all the other conections.
I haven't had any problems with it yet, KNOCK ON WOOD!
